Sometimes the Clintons make me furious (see the previous post) -- but I can never forget that the political insiders hate them, in a very sick and very politically regressive way.

Example: Here's the photo that was chosen to accompany a campaign story in today's New York Times:

(Click to enlarge.)

I don't know who chose this photo, but here's my advice to that person:

Calm down. Take a deep breath. Yes, she's a woman. Yes, she wears women's shoes. Yes, if she's president she will be as symbolically large and powerful relative to many, many men as she seems in this picture. THAT'S OK! STOP HYPERVENTILATING! GET A GRIP ON YOURSELF! DON'T ROLL INTO THE FETAL POSITION AND START WHIMPERING! YOU'LL GET THROUGH THIS! GIRL GERMS ARE NOT FATAL!

And you know, I still can't follow the narrative. Let's see if I've got it: Bill is an unstoppable sexual superpredator, but he's also crushed under the heel of Hillary the Bitch-Witch in her thick-thighed lesbian pant suits. Oh, and somehow all this tension between them has never done anything to interrupt their decades-old mad-scientist secret plan for joint global domination.
